PTA Programs
Arts in Education - Reflections ProgramThe Hawaii State PTSA is a proud sponsor of the Reflections Program. Designed to enhance, rather than replace, a quality arts education, the Reflections Program provides opportunities for students to express themselves and to receive positive recognition for their artistic efforts.
PTA believes all children deserve a quality arts education and encourages students to pursue artistic expression through participation in its annual arts Reflections Program. The program offers students the opportunity to create works of art for fun and recognition. Students in preschool through grade 12 are encouraged to create and submit works of art in six areas: literature, musical composition, photography, film production, dance choreography, and visual arts. For over 50 years, this program has encouraged millions of students across the nation to create works of art.
